Pumpkin Craving...

It's that time of year again when our family has it's annual pumpkin craving night. Every year we crave our pumpkins the night before Halloween. We eat and then we spend the rest of the night together craving. In our family it's not about how fancy you can make them, it's about doing whatever you what with your own pumpkin. They get to draw on their own faces or whatever. It's just about having fun! OK we were lucky to get Ben to put his hand in the pumpkin this far...
Do I really have to touch it??? He really didn't think he would have to get his hands dirty!

Christmas Already???

So this morning about 6:00 am my two little guys, Ben and Jake came into our room. Lynn and I where still trying to sleep, and we heard the door open and the boys running in with great excitement in their voices, "mommy, daddy, it's Christmas time, it's Christmas time. Can we put the Christmas tree up?" Yes, we got the first snow of the season and they where ready for Christmas. Give me sometime guys, I need to make it through my Halloween party first, and then Thanksgiving dinner!! I promised them one month from today the Christmas tree will be up...
